CITY TRUSTEES.
The Plaza Hay Scales Must Goa New
Haymarket Established.


The Board of City Trustees met in regu-
lar session at 10 A. NJ. yesterday, all the
members present.
p A. F. Goddard, proprietor of the hay
scales at Ninth and streets, presented q
petition signed by some sixty -four citizens,
a majority of them saloon-keepers and
business men in the immediate vicinity of
the plaza, protesting against the proposed
changes looking to the improvement OF the
plaza grounds. He made long argument
in favor of leaving the hay scales and the
haymarket in the street, where they have
been for thirty years past.
The Trustees evidently have made up
their minds to allow nothing to stand in
the way of the boom. They ordered the
haymarket removed from the plaza to the
public square, between Fifteenth and Six
teenth, 2 and q streets, and ordered God
dard to get his scales out of the way. God
dard stated that he purchased the scales in
1868 from a party who claimed to have re-
ceived special privileges from the city. The
minutes have been searched but no such
record can be found. The only privilege
the present Board will extend to Mr.. God
dard is that of letting him remove his
property and make way for the workmen
who are to beautify the grounds.

d. Gardner asked the privilege of blast
ing logs in Chinatown. The request was
denied
James Touhey's bid for grading and grav-
cling K street, from Eleventh to Four
teenth, was the lowest but owing to pro-
tests on file the same was not awarded. II
appears that some of the property holders
are perfectly willing to have the street
graded, provided Carey & Sons pay for it.
The latter. some time ago. stated that as
soon as the street was raised to the grade
and graveled they would put down track
and operate the same. 1t is safe to say if
the property-owners insist upon the Careys
filling in and paying the major portion of
the improvement, the laying of a K-street
railway will be postponed for an indefinite
period, and that portion of the street go
unimproved a long time
The matter was continued for one week
The Street Commissioner was directed to
post notices calling for sealed proposals for
improving the intersection of Ninth and NJ
streets. He was also directed to post no
tees calling for sealed proposals for i'm

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Police Court.

Yesterday appeared to be boys day in
Buckley's Court, from the fact that four
youths scarcely Il years of age were present
under criminal charges. James Leve. 13
years old, was accused of entering King
Longs house and carrying off pistol and
pair of gloves. Ii appears that James had
little cunning experience once before on
the Riverside road, in which Chinaman
figured somewhat. In this case he said he
took the pistol because the Chinaman owed
him, but this clear statement did not seem
TO agree with the fact that when the officers
searched for him he hid himself away in
an ash-barrel or box in the cellar-way.
The circumstances pointed to bad case.
but Judge Buckley concluded to take the
case under advisement for one week. In
the meantime James will remain in the
City Prison.
Ben Rosser IA years old, was charged
with battering Max Wilbelme, but was dis
charged
George Kelley and Thomas Hussy
were charged with disturbing the
peace of Mrs. Wilhelme. the mo-
ther of Max. The evidence as a
whole showed that good feeling did not run
riot in that neighborhood. The Wilheln-
ties sarcastically told Kelley and Hussey
that they had the map of Ireland on their
laCcS. lhe DOSs retOTteu DE informing Mrs.
Wilhelme that the German Emperor was
visible beneath her eyebrows Indecent

thought it all matter which the parents

THE PRESENT STATE OF THINGS

The following lines, written and sent ns by
young lady, are a woll-timed rebuke Of the
present stutus of social life in Taylor. and
worthy of prominent place in our columns !:
o, for land where eossip's unknown.
Where people may do as they please,
Where dresses and deeds bring forth no com
ment,
Where we could for once bo at ease.
Is 1t not u pity wherever we go
To friends OF to neigh ors TO chat,
We hear, DO come in for I've something to
tell,
Did you ace so and SOS ugly new hat
Have you heard of that scandal2
It's really shame for people to act as they
do,
II l had been acting as some people have
wouldn't know which way to go.
And 20 through tho catalogue, every ones sins
Are told and commented upon;
Bat those who're repeating their neighbors'
bad deeds
Are always foget.ing their own.
No peace or no harmony ever Can reign
Where everv one fears gossip's tongue;
Where no one escapes from the terrible
scourge,
No matter how old or how young.
o, let us have peace. Let us find something
else,
Than our neighbors' great failings 20 tell;
Remember perfection in no one exists
And you'll fnd that all things will 60 we'll.
